Sequins, Sequins, Everywhere

I joke about how I can't stop buying sequins, but I legit don't seem to be able to stop! Need proof? Just look at this, this and this post for starters! They not only turn a seemingly blah outfit into something infinitely more fun, they also just make me happy. Cheaper addiction than say...sports cars...right?

Greyscale

Lately, I've been all over monochrome/tonal dressing. OK, yes, it makes getting dressed in the morning a million times easier (always a plus), but it also feels like it makes outfits automatically a little chic-er. While you can't go wrong with head to toe all black, I find myself (gasp!) buying all grey everything lately. It feels slightly newer but still has the same crispness and cleanness of all black.

Going Green

Somehow summer came and went and I didn't wear this breezy maxi once. In an effort to both justify my purchase as well as mix things up, I did my best to bring this baby out before its too cold to even utter the word 'sundress.' In my head, adding blazers/tights/leather can make almost anything fall and winter appropriate...have I mentioned yet that I can rationalize anything?
